Dr. Carrie Calhoun graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Madison School of Veterinary Medicine in 2014 and knew that she wanted to be an emergency clinician. She completed a rotating small animal internship in emergency, medicine, and surgery in Seattle, Washington before joining our team at MVS.
Dr. Calhoun lives in Fitchburg with her golden retriever/Great Pyrenees mix named Charlie. In her free time, she enjoys running, paddle boarding, hiking and traveling.
Baylee obtained her degree in Veterinary Technology from Madison College in 2019 and is working on her Bachelors in the same field from Mizzou. Prior to joining the MVS team in February 2022 as our laboratory technician, she worked as an emergency nurse at a different emergency veterinary clinic.
Baylee lives in Waunakee and shares her home with a DSH named Abigail, a Cockapoo named Mollie Jo, a Chihuahua mix named Joey, a Norwegian Forest Cat named and Eli and a goldfish named Shamu.

Sara came to MVS in September 2021 after working a few years in emergency medicine elsewhere. Her prior position gave her the opportunity to take care of the people who come with the pets, and being at MVS has allowed this to continue in an even bigger capacity. Sara’s hobbies include reading mostly nonfiction books and tarot cards, watching her “stories” such as the Real Housewives, and hanging around the house with her four cats; two orange boys, Marvin and Quincy (a blood donor!), a poofy brown tabby girl named Eleanor, and a sassy little calico girl named Stevie (yes, after Stevie Nicks). A fun fact about Sara is that she used to teach yoga and meditation, and in some weird way both things help her to do her current job better.
